About us


Affinda is the life's work of brothers Ben and Tim Toner, a Melbourne-born AI company focused on helping organisations create value from AI across people, processes and the P&L.

AI capability is advancing faster than most organisations can absorb it, resulting in growing investment, scattered pilots, and limited impact on the metrics that matter. The gap between what AI can do and what it delivers inside a business is enormous, and widening.

We deliver AI agents that automate complex workflows at scale, mission-critical products for industries where precision and reliability are non-negotiable, capability programs that upskill your people, and expert teams to design, build and deploy AI solutions that transform your business.
